These Windows 2000 options aren't available because the domain is in mixed mode. Windows NT 4.0 domain controllers (DCs) don't support the Win2K options, so the options aren't available. To enable the options, you must switch to native mode (although this switch is a one-way operation, so be certain before you perform this action).
